jdado writes "Hi,
Hope you can answer this one.
I want to return the row number based on the
order field I choose.

ex. table "items" sorted by field "title" and
primary field "itemnum" = 123453

itemnum title rownumber
123451 title1 1
123452 title2 2
123453 title3 3

So if I want to know:
What rownumber does itemnum=123453 would it be when
it is sorted by title.. The answer would be 3

What could be the SQL query for this?

Thanks.."
